Video [Miku Hatsune] The Path to Eternal Happiness, I Found It [English Subtitles]

T.Komine-san's Comments: "An Electrorock Ritual", "I accidentally mixed up "Heaven" and "Heavenly Prison"...oopsie! :P"

UPDATE 2: I know there are many of you out there who have been enjoying this series of fun and creative "troll" songs alongside me for the past few months and I definitely encourage you to consider buying Utata-P's major debut album, "Minna shiawase ni nare"/みんな幸せにな～れ!" (Everyone BECOME HAPPY!) released via EXIT TUNES. It will include all the popular songs you have seen in the series so far along with new songs by Miku, MAYU, and Yuzuki Yukari. If you order soon and get the first press edition, your order will also come with a bonus poster! The CD is still a month away from release and is already 53rd on the Anime Song sales chart on Amazon JP, let's work together to make it even higher! You can pre-order the album (4/17 release) at Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B00B18SUE8/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=247&creative=1211&creativeASIN=B00B18SUE8&linkCode=as2&tag=tkomine-22) and CDJapan (http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=QWCE-272).

UPDATE: T.Komine-san has finally added this song to Itunes/KarenT, please support him here if you can: http://karent.jp/album/1140

"This time I had Miku become a Voodoo Goddess"

"First was an electrorock speech, this time we had an electrorock ritual. The inspiration this time was voodooism."

I really love the "be careful what you wish for" theme of this series.

So right now it's 4am and I have class in 4 hours. I am not exactly sure why I stayed up doing this, but it might just be the enjoyment I get out of this series and my desire to continue translating it. Also, um, Miku's hair looks very beautiful (the non-voodoo miku), and well that kind of thing always motivates me too. In case you haven't seen it yet, this is a spiritual successor to the recent t.komine song, "This is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee", check it out when you can. Also it took a LONG time to typeset, so there is that as well...But I hope you enjoy it. I know it's hard to see the brief flashes of text without pausing the video (which is difficult on YT), so I'll try to post the text of the video here sometime tomorrow.
